Product Description
Jeep Compass 2011-2016 Pillar Post Trim, Four Stainless Covers (PP51075)
Four polished stainless pillar post covers for the Jeep Compass, PP51075 costs $67.99. The covers are cut from 26 gauge 304 stainless steel and made in the USA. The record lists one fitment row, Jeep Compass 2011-2016, tagged 4-door, SUV, which takes in six model years of the Compass.
Two larger pillar sets are linked for the same row: PP51076 with six covers and PP51077 with eight. None of the three names the posts it covers or gives a width, so the way to choose is by photo. Open the three galleries, then go out to your Compass and count the posts you want to dress before deciding whether four is the right number for you.
The record also links other trim for this Compass: LP51075, a license plate bezel; RD51075, a rear deck accent; TH51075, a four-piece rocker panel insert kit noted "Side Molding"; and WS51075, a four-piece window sill set. Each has its own listing with its own details, and none of them is part of this order.
Compasses from 2011 to 2016 take the four covers. If it falls outside 2011 to 2016, this row doesn't cover your Jeep, and it's worth a call before ordering. Quality Automotive Trims is on 877-752-3811; give us PP51075 and the year and we'll check the record with you.
These covers are about appearance. They sit over the posts by the side glass and leave doors, windows and seals working as they always have. Grade 304 stainless resists corrosion through its own alloy, so there's no plated layer on top.
Each of the four mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape straight onto the post's existing paint or trim. There's nothing to drill and no trim to pry off the Jeep. Check the Installation tab for the temperature window and the cure time before you pick a day.
For the prep, have a roll of low-tack painter's tape, a pencil, rubbing alcohol, a bucket of car-soap water and several lint-free cloths. Strip any wax or polish from the four posts. If the paint is chalky, crazed or flaking, put that right first, because the tape holds to that coat. Wash, rinse and dry, then wipe each post with rubbing alcohol, refolding the cloth until it comes away clean, and feel along for dents.
Work in shade on a dry day with little wind. Unpack the four, compare them with the gallery and tell us about any damage at once. Match each to its post and mark a number there on painter's tape. With the liner still on, hold the first cover in place, slide it until the reveal is even and outline it with tape. Peel the liner, set the cover back into the outline and press firmly along its length and both edges. Check it before starting the next.
If a cover won't seat, keep its liner on and ring 877-752-3811 rather than forcing it. After the tape cures, a car-soap wash and a soft towel keep the four looking right.

Installation tips: Pillar Post Trim
- Unpack all 4 pieces and match each one to its position on the vehicle, using the product photos, before fitting any of them.
- Each piece mounts with 3M automotive-grade acrylic foam tape, so clean and dry the mounting surface first; the tape needs paint or trim free of dirt and wax.
- Align the piece and press it firmly into place directly over the existing surface, working along its full length so the tape bonds evenly.
- Fit one piece at a time and compare each with the product photos and the pieces already in place.
These are general tips. Follow any instructions packed with your kit if they differ.
